The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is serving as the
editor of a standard for key wrap algorithms that is in development within
Accredited Standards Committee X9, Financial Services, Inc. On behalf of
the X9F1 working group, NIST requests a cryptographic review of the four
algorithms that have been proposed for the standard. A document that
specifies the algorithms and suggests security models for their analysis is
available at the Cryptology ePrint Archive:
http://eprint.iacr.org/2004/340/ .
Comments will be accepted until May 21, 2005.

Just in case you missed out on mailings from different sources, you may be
interested to know that ECRYPT has made a call for stream cipher primitives.
More information is available at http://www.ecrypt.eu.org/stream/ - please
feel free to publicise this effort widely.
Cheers
